### 5/5 — Practical way to learn a language

*2026-07-30*

I had been stuck with traditional methods of learning vocab and grammar but this app really drills the recall method home. Have seen progress in just few weeks being a student busy with exams. 
Highly recommend it

### 5/5 — Melhor aplicativo que existe de inglês.

### 4/5 — Love the app but there is problem.

*2026-07-30, version 1.1.0*

I went Pro this morning and spent 45 minutes walking my dog while listening via the Dual Language feature. This is a terrific enhancement. Thank you. HOWEVER, I then downloaded some vocab for offline listening. The app consequently crashed. It would not reload so I deleted the app and reinstalled. The app still will not load in my iPhone. I get a spinning wheel that does not resolve. I know this is a growning pain and am certain you'll get it addressed. If I could suggest that perhaps you start a Discord channel where we can communicate our experience without having to do it in this fashion. That would afford you the ability to hear from and communicate with your members without having to do it in a public forum like YouTube or the App Store. Looking forward to getting the app fixed. Your work is much appreciated.

### 5/5 — Magnificent

*2026-07-26, version 1.0*

This is a treasure everyone should know about this app, I just have one question is there any way I can record my voice in the app saying phrases because I couldn't find any option to do that or is it available only in the pro version besides that flawless app

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2026-07-23, version 1.0*

Please make pro version one time purchase and affordable.

### 5/5 — Sound science - full customisation of ‘islands’ awaited

*2026-07-22, version 1.0*

App working smoothly. I am sold on the ‘island’ technique to get me out of the Duolingo rut - and the underlying science is sound. Looking forward to full functionality of custom islands (limited at the moment in the launch month) as I think doing the work there is where the real progress will happen. (Though graft needed.) Great work.

### 5/5 — Überrascht

*2026-07-21*

Ich benutzte die App bis jetzt noch nicht so lange aber sie hält alles was sie verspricht und macht einen seriösen und gut gestalteten Eindruck.

### 5/5 — Great Tool

*2026-07-20, version 1.0*

I’m looking forward to this going Pro and being able to save more islands (text blocks)

### 5/5 — À proposta é muito interessante

*2026-07-17*

Espero poder acrescentar novas ilhas pois o limite de characters são apenas 500 cada, seria incrível se tivesse uma sistema de repetição espaçada nas ilhas. E claro um modo escuro.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2026-07-17, version 1.0*

Great app I am loving it so far! This really is a good way to get closer to fluency.

### 4/5 — A proposta é ótima!

*2026-07-15*

Estou ansioso pela possibilidade de poder inserir mais do que o permitido na hora de criar minhas ilhas. 

Também seria interessante adicionar frases em ilhas minhas já existentes, sem precisar criar uma ilha nova sempre. 

Outra sugestão é a adição de um modo escuro. 🙏🏻

### 1/5 — Fancy App that Fails

*2026-08-30, version 1.1.1*

This App is a poorly implemented knock-off of other apps like DuoLingo that make huge promises that naive learners will buy into… they’ll spend money on this over-priced subscription and waste time and energy only to find they’re results are minimal.  Definitely NOT the way to get fluent.  The guy who promotes this made a video basically saying “apps fail” but then puts out another app (that isn’t even the best on the market) and says “buy MY app plan”.   It’s a snake-oil approach to language learning.  I hope users will do their research and find real approaches that actually will work.  This is just slick packaging of a learning approach that will fail for the vast, vast, vast majority of people.   The only ones that would benefit will be coincidental and wouldn’t need this app anyhow.   Do your research, language learners.

### 1/5 — Greedy

*2026-08-03, version 1.1.0*

Good app and system for learning your target language. provides large amounts of comprehensible input before the update to the paid pro version. Very much limited in the non pro version. i would guess the very positive reviews will drop off. The ask price seems excessive to me when you can find the same content on youtube for free.

### 1/5 — Sign up issue

*2026-07-27*

I tried multiple times to sign up with email but not getting any email and not able to login as well. Seems it stuck. Not sure is that working or not.

### 2/5 — I just need to get in touch with support

*2026-08-04, version 1.1.0*

I don’t want to leave a bad review and I will update it as soon as I am able to get my issue resolved. I was told something about my subscription and I sent the email to support with my screenshot. My subscription does not reflect what I was told and I haven’t heard anything back nor is my subscription fixed. Please help. Thank you for your time.

### 2/5 — Ridiculous price

*2026-07-30*

I was very fond of this app and used it quite often. There were a few aspect which made it feel that the app is still in progress. Now with the new paywall it’s an absolute joke. Paying 10€ a month to unlock 3/4 th of the app??
Which is just an AI voice reading sentences???
A lot of the translations are mediocre and the interface really isn’t worth this much money. I hope they can change something as soon as possible

### 2/5 — Audio Issues

*2026-07-15, version 1.0*

The concept of the app is amazing, but the audio issues are extremely frustrating. When they fix the audio bugs that cause you to be unable to listen or start any playlist I will up my rating score.

### 3/5 — Good but not the best

*2026-08-09, version 1.1.0*

They promised unlimited Language Islands with the Pro+ subscription. Even with that subscription, I was limited.

### 3/5 — Has potential

*2026-08-07, version 1.1.0*

I like the language island concept and shadowing capability. I’m using it to study Japanese. I wish the voice over could be changed like other TTS services. It would also be nice to be able to edit sentences in a language island instead of having to reupload. And I wish we could adjust the sentence order. 

I’ve noticed when I upload Japanese text, I notice the pronunciation is sometimes off or the kanji is not correct once uploaded. If I were a complete beginner, I would not have noticed these errors.

### 3/5 — An ok app

*2026-06-22, version 1.0*

I’m a native English speaker learning Japanese. I’d love to give a 5 star because the concept of learning in this manner is very promising and in a lot of ways does work. However it would be a great help if they would add another line with English with the same sentence structure as the Japanese to help figure out which word is which. Until this happens you will be left with googling every word until you have them all written down sucking up a lot of study time. And then you will learn quickly.

### 4/5 — Great

*2026-08-20, version 1.1.0*

Great app, would love if it was slightly cheaper and if the shadowing could be randomised

### 5/5 — Very good

*2026-09-01*

Super but need more languages like Polish

### 5/5 — Spanish learner

*2026-08-31, version 1.1.1*

Very happy with the system and app !!

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2026-08-30, version 1.1.1*

Simple focus and efficient! This is the best language app I ever use ! Pls also add Hebrew to the app! Thank you !

### 5/5 — Excellent app!

*2026-08-21, version 1.1.0*

I have been learning German for 5 years. I have made great progress, but stumbled across this app recently. It is fast becoming my “go to” language training system. The app is user friendly and well laid out. The ability to create your own content is simply next level. I’m looking forward to future app updates and the rolling out of new features. The pro level is well worth the minimal cost for membership. Well done HyperLingua team.

### 5/5 — Excellent Language-Learning app - Native CarPlay Would Make it Nearly Perfect

*2026-08-17, version 1.1.0*

HyperLingua is an exceptionally well-developed language-learning app. The interface is polished and intuitive, the audio quality is excellent, and the overall design makes it very easy to incorporate listening and speaking practice into a daily routine. It’s obvious that a lot of thought has gone into both the learning methodology and the user experience.

The one feature I would really like to see is a **native Apple CarPlay app**. For language learners, time spent driving is an ideal opportunity for hands-free listening, repetition, and shadowing practice. Bluetooth audio works, but it isn’t the same as having a purpose-built CarPlay interface where lessons and playlists can be controlled safely from the vehicle’s display.

Pimsleur has implemented CarPlay very effectively, and it demonstrates just how useful a well-designed, audio-first CarPlay experience can be for language learning. I think HyperLingua would be an especially good fit for this.

I contacted the HyperLingua team about the idea and was very pleased to hear that they have now added Apple CarPlay support to their product roadmap for evaluation. That kind of responsiveness to users is another reason I’m happy to give HyperLingua **five stars**.

Highly recommended, and I’m looking forward to seeing where the developers take it next.

### 5/5 — Great, improved my speaking skills

*2026-08-12, version 1.1.0*

Gone through the Vocabulary A1/A2 over multiple times. My speaking and understanding of podcasts improved a lot. I have done Language Transfer, CI and Glossika before. So I knew a lot, but this app activated it. This has replaced Glossika for me and works better. Subscribed to Pro as so as released.

### 5/5 — Think I’ll Stick with It This Time

*2026-08-12, version 1.1.0*

I’ve been trying to learn Spanish on and off for years - in the beginning island I’ve already learned new (useful!) words. The “Dialogues” feature is my favorite - so I can practice not only what to say but how to respond in conversation - It’s fun and well organized

### 5/5 — Acessibilidade

*2026-08-11*

Se tivesse a opção de comprar baralhos ou um plano mais simples e barato seria interessante.

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2026-08-06, version 1.1.0*

I would really really appreciate if you added languages like Farsi

### 5/5 — Incredible App

*2026-08-05, version 1.1.0*

This app is so underrated for the impact it has! The methodology is working really well for me and I’ve learned a lot of common phrases in less than a week.
